Our skilled outpatient physical rehabilitation therapist team offers a broad range of specialties. These include orthopaedics, spine care, vestibular, balance, concussion, neurologic disorders, stroke, amputee, industrial therapy and pelvic health. We are proud that so many of New Hampshire’s therapists with prestigious certifications work right here at Cheshire Medical Center.
We can match you with a therapist who can best meet your needs. We can offer comprehensive rehabilitation programs that combine a range of therapies. Most often, specialists focus on helping patients recover from or fully live with a specific injury or disability. However, some of our therapists also offer performance enhancement and injury prevention for athletics.
